This may be of some use to you for spots at least
Just make sure that anything that is permanent live (direct from battery) is fused. For example two 100w spots would require 1 x 30amp relay and be fused with a 20amp blade fuse as the power consumption they would use would be roughly 16amps. For everything else que K9F  |

Here is a good how to for crimps - I would read this before resorting to soldering stuff:
strong and reliable crimp joints It is also worth buying the correct thinwall, multistrand wire in sufficient different colours to allow you to differentiate circuits correctly - there is nothing worse than coming back to it later when it is all in red and black, or worse all one colour! The likes of VWP or Polevolt are good suppliers... hth Mark [:O|===|O:] 2001 110 TD5 Doublecab |

Draw a diagram and keep it safe so you can work out what you've done at a later date.
Also highly recommend thinwall cable of the correct rating, and using lots of colours to separate different functions. eBay is good for selection packs of cable, connectors, tools etc if you don't want loads. 1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top
